Surprise Artie - S2-E19

Visible crew/equipment: When Doug and Arthur are eating in the buffet restaurant, stage lights are seen reflecting in the cup. Also, each time the camera goes from angle to angle, the cup has moved from one side of the table to the other, sometimes have a saucer, sometimes not. (00:06:35 - 00:08:20)

The Minister

Party Favor - S2-E13

Visible crew/equipment: When Doug and Carrie are arguing about Danny coming over, you can see a stage light (not on) through the door window. We can also the neighbours garage, which we know from many outside shots of the Heffernan's backyard, is not that close to the house. (00:01:50)

The Minister

Mama Cast - S9-E1

Continuity mistake: When Doug jumps out of the porta-potty before the rival ice-cream truck smashes through it, the door is open and Doug immediately lands on the ground; but when the shot changes, the porta-potty door is closed and we can't see Doug rolling onto the ground. Also, when the truck smashes into the porta-potty, liquid splashes everywhere; but when we see Doug in the next shot he is dry and no liquid on the ground around him. (00:12:55)

The Minister

Affair Trade - S9-E2

Continuity mistake: When Doug and Jessica run into Carrie in the parking lot at the Dr. Heffernan office, there is a man walking up from behind them with grey hair. In the next shot he instantly appears beside them unrealistically fast. (00:19:20)

The Minister

Mama Cast - S9-E1

Continuity mistake: When Doug is in the porta-potty you can see a tree outside the window to the left; however when Doug looks out the window we can see their are cars parked on the side where the tree was. (00:12:40)

The Minister

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: Not really, the shot where the tree can be seen is viewed from the front so the tree is actually behind the porta-potty to the left. The view to the cars is directly looking left.

Move Doubt - S8-E8

Continuity mistake: Near the end of the episode when Doug and Carrie are at Deacon and Kelly's apartment, you can see a picture on the wall in the hallway behind them. Then when Doug and Carrie leave, the wall is much further back and there's a window and plant instead of the picture on the wall. (00:19:40 - 00:20:45)

The Minister

Roamin' Holiday - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: When Doug and Richie are waiting for Spence at the pub, there is a pepper shaker in front of Doug's beer that disappears and reappears. This happens again again after Spence arrives and Rickie is making fun of him. (00:04:15)

The Minister

Party Favor - S2-E13

Visible crew/equipment: When Doug goes back to the house after unsuccessfully scraping the frost off the car, a stage light is reflected in the window to the right of the front door. As Doug approaches the door his own shadow passes over this reflection. (00:01:30)

The Minister

Frozen Pop - S2-E15

Revealing mistake: When Doug goes out to scrape frost off the car, we can see he casts 2 shadows from different stage lights as he comes down the steps as well as on the hood of the car. (00:01:00)

The Minister

Party Favor - S2-E13

Continuity mistake: At the beginning when Doug is putting his jacket on to go outside to scrape frost off the car, the lamp in the corner of the living room is off. In the next shot from outside the lamp is instantly on and when can see Carrie did not turn it on. (00:00:50)

The Minister

Doug Out - S2-E6

Continuity mistake: At the ball game right before Carrie gets to the front of the concession line, there is a woman right behind here followed by a man. When she gets to the front of the line, the extras behind her have switched.

The Minister

Doug Out - S2-E6

Continuity mistake: In the exterior shot of Coopers there is a car parked, no bins, no people. However, in the immediate interior shot, you can see a garbage bin, newspaper box and people walking by in either direction. (00:13:15)

The Minister

Show generally

Continuity mistake: Outside shots of Coopers, upper half of each door has 9 windows. 3 sets of 10 windows on either side of doors. Inside Coopers, main doors are all glass and no windows on either side.

The Minister

Queasy Rider - S2-E1

Audio problem: When Doug enters the kitchen wearing his leather jacket and tells Carrie he just got in from riding the bike, you can see the bike parked just outside the kitchen window in the backyard. If that was true it would have been heard from inside the kitchen, as motorcycles are quite loud. (00:11:35 - 00:12:15)

The Minister

Assaulted Nuts - S2-E3

Other mistake: When Doug is drawing a picture to explain to the nurse why he is there, a man purchases a beverage from the "Hot Drinks" machine behind Doug. The drink is ready unrealistically fast and the man immediately takes a sip from an obviously empty cup. Those machines produce notoriously hot beverages, so if the machine actually worked the man would have scalded himself.
